PlayStation 4 was the top-selling console in US in November, according to figures from US industry tracker NPD Group.
According to a statement from SCEA president and CEO Jack Tretton, PS4 outsold its rival Xbox One in the consoles' opening month on sale. The PS4 was released on November 15, one week before Xbox One which arrived Nov. 22.
Microsoft, however, extracts positives from another angle, claiming Xbox One to be the "fastest-selling console" in North America in November, averaging 101k units sold per day since its November 22 launch, according to Larry Hryb. But with the vast majority of units for both console having been sold within their first day on sale, (around 1 million according to prior announcements from both firms), and fewer days to divide these sales between than the PS4, this counts as little more than a simple mathematical spin.
Xbox One sales in North America in November totaled 909,132, says Microsoft citing NPD. Exact PS4 figures are yet to be confirmed, but Sony previously claimed around 1 million launch-day sales alone in the region.
"Xbox One was the second highest selling platform for the month, which marked the largest launch for a Microsoft console," noted NPD's Liam Callaghan.
Jack Tretton commented, "PlayStation 4 sales in North America and worldwide have been incredibly strong since launch, culminating in PS4 being recognized as the largest console launch in history.
"In North America alone, more than one million PS4 units were sold in only 24 hours and we're pleased NPD has reported that PS4 was the top selling next-gen platform for both hardware and software in November," added Tretton.
"We are humbled by the passion and excitement demonstrated by gamers for PS4. Demand continues to overwhelm supply, but we're working hard to get PS4 units into the hands of customers throughout the holiday season."
Nintendo highlights another successful month for its 3DS handheld, selling around 770,000 units of the Nintendo 3DS family pushing the lifetime total past 10 million to nearly 10.5 million units. But Wii U continues to suffer disappointing retail performance; Nintendo touts "more than 340 percent over sales in October" which still only puts the console at around 220,000 units sold.
Xbox 360 topped sales of last-gen consoles in the month, with roughly 647,000 units sold, says Hryb.
Hardware sales were up 58 per cent year-on-year, despite an overall software sales decline of 24 per cent, down to $1.085 billion from $1.434 billion in 2012. Total consumer spend in November was just under $1.9 billion. Vita sales went unmentioned.
"This is the fourth consecutive month for an increase in combined physical sales across hardware, software and accessories," said Callaghan. "Unlike the past three months where growth was driven by software, positive trends for both hardware and accessory sales drove on overall increase of 7%."
Sony has released a video celebrating its record-breaking PS4 launch:

CHANDIGARH: In a significant development, a special CBI court in Panchkula on Tuesday allowed the DNA tests of three accused, involved in sexual abuse of children inside Rohtak's shelter home, Apna Ghar.
Special CBI judge permitted the DNA tests of Satish, driver at the shelter home, Jai Bhagwan, son-in-law of Apna Ghar caretaker Jaswanti Devi and Jaswanti's brother Jaswant Singh while accepting the demand of CBI, which is probing the case.
Jai Bhagwan and Satish had refused to undergo the DNA test while Jaswant had consented for the test.
The DNA tests were required by the premier agency to identify the father of a baby girl born to a rape victim, who was an inmate at Apna Ghar.
The 20-year-old physically challenged victim had delivered a girl on September 16. She is currently living with her daughter at Swadhar, a shelter home run by the state women and child development department at Bhiwani city.
The victim was rescued from the shelter home during the raid by National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) on May 9 this year. The raid saw rescue of over 90 minor girls, aged between 10 and 15. Jaswanti was later charged with immoral trafficking and torture.
Earlier, the case was investigated by a special investigation team of Haryana police but was later transferred to CBI. CBI has already filed charge sheets against the seven accused, including Jaswanti, in the CBI court on August 7.

It's an absolute pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Web Strategy Plus. Last year, I decided to hire a social media manager, and interviewed several people for the position. This was an important decision, as this person would help mold my company's image. I knew I had a winner from the moment I spoke with their team. They showed a genuine interest in my needs. I enthusiastically hired them, and was eager to see what results they could produce. I immediately saw the return on my investment, and it was clear by the first month that I had made the right decision. The Web Strategy Plus team is competent in their field, and they go above and beyond to make sure that my company's needs are met. They are very accessible, and gets things handled for me in the most timely fashion. Their service is truly second to none!.
Henrietta Nye,Keir Educational Services
Web Strategy Plus has done a great job in keeping us up to date and in the game. Being a small company, we do not have the staff to handle all of the activity necessary for a great social media presence. They build our image as a bigger company, so we can play on a more even field. I don't have the time to stay current with all the opportunities for marketing our company - they are on top of the technology and systems for building our brand. They have surpassed all goals we set. I would highly recommend the Web Strategy Plus team!.
Mike Seta,Owner of Seta Personal Training
Web Strategy Plus was great to work with. They really know what they are talking about and have passion for what they do. I was blown away the first time I met the team and by how much they knew not to mention they are very courteous and personable. All of my projects were done either before the deadline set or were right on time. I would definitely hire Web Strategy Plus again in the future!.
Brandon Schaefer,Owner of 90DayEntrepreneur
I'm recommending Web Strategy Plus for their continued work in providing clients with the highest level of social media training, digital marketing information, web strategies, and by helping clients drive leads to their business. I highly recommend you engage with Web Strategy Plus on your next project..

Approximately 2,992,924 people live in the Portland metropolitan area (MSA), the 19th most populous MSA in the United States.
Portland was incorporated in 1851 near the end of the Oregon Trail and is the county seat of Multnomah County. The city has a commission-based government headed by a mayor and four other commissioners as well as Metro, a distinctive regional government. The city is noted for its superior land-use planning and investment in light rail. Because of its public transportation networks and efficient land-use planning, Portland has been recognized as one of the most environmentally conscious cities in the world.
Located in the Marine west coast climate region, Portland has a climate marked by both warm, dry summers and wet, cool-to-chilly winter days. This climate is ideal for growing roses. For more than a century, Portland has been known as the "City of Roses", with many rose gardens – most prominently the International Rose Test Garden. The city is also known for its abundant outdoor activities, and beer and coffee enthusiasm. Portland is home to a large number of independent microbreweries, microdistilleries and food carts that contribute to the unofficial slogan "Keep Portland Weird".
Award-winning Portland International Airport (PDX) is just nine miles north of the Oregon Convention Center and downtown Portland, and is conveniently connected to both via light rail.

Corey Pein seems to think that digitally savvy journalists have a collective case of Stockholm syndrome. "In their long and seemingly hopeless search for answers, journalists have internalized the abusive rhetoric of the 'disruption' brigade," he writes in The Baffler this week, in a piece that writes off most new-media journalistic efforts as doomed to fail, and to compromise Fourth Estate values in the process. He writes that "journalists facing the collapse of their industry are turning in desperation to faith healers, quacks, and hucksters of all sorts," though he focuses on one sort: the startup-culture "innovator" who seeks to drum up a lot of attention, sell out, and cash in—with little concern for the survival of American journalism.
I've chronicled many "journopreneurial" solutions proposed by the people Pein thinks are destroying the profession: explainer-oriented startups, personal branding, crowdfunding, freelance collectives, aggregation; the list goes on. Some of these things are leading to better journalism and more stable environments in which to produce it. Some aren't. A few will be relevant in five or 10 years. Most won't. And I agree that it's right to be skeptical of the motives of self-proclaimed disruptive innovators in any field. But to accuse anyone trying to find new ways to make great journalism in a very tough climate of actively working against the profession doesn't strike me as much of a solution, either. If the all of the old models are failing, and all of the people trying new things can't be trusted, what's left? Little more, it seems, than frustrated thinkpieces about the death of journalism.
As I've confessed before, I enjoy being a journalist in this particular moment in history. But I'm not a cheerleader for every new business model and publishing method, or a champion of all new-media gurus. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to produce good journalism from within a culture where bosses who consider themselves "disruptors" are destroying the thing they claim to be saving. Trying to convince startup-style bosses that reporting is more valuable than aggregation is almost as frustrating as trying to convince old-school editors of the value of social media. But I know of many news organizations that fall between these two extreme frustrations. For me to get out of bed every morning and keep working as a journalist, I have to believe that there are even more out there.
Pein appears to have missed such digital-first achievements as Talking Points Memo's Polk award for investigative reporting, The Huffington Post's Pulitzer, and BuzzFeed's reports on campus sexual assault and black-market arms dealing. "The digital-first propaganda obfuscates the qualitative inferiority of the new media order," Pein writes. I'm not sure how you'd even begin to make a qualitative comparison between the current state of media and the pre-internet days of conglomerate-owned, mass-market newspaper chains, TV stations, and magazines, punctuated with a few hard-to-find indie alternatives. He continues, undeterred, "But the rising tech monopolies are ruthless capitalist enterprises that are plainly not interested in journalism as that term has been understood by generations of Americans. Their agenda is automation, standardization and de-professionalization; let the robots do it all, and whatever the robots can't handle, leave to the Redditors."
Even the most wide-eyed media entrepreneur can agree that Google doesn't care about protecting the Fourth Estate, and Facebook isn't concerned about bringing more attention to hard-hitting investigative reporting. But the fact is that people find news using search engines and through social media networks. Again, it's fair to be aware of these tech monopolies' and platforms' effect on what news gets reported and shared, but I don't see how it serves news organizations (both new and established) or consumers to create business models that don't account for them.
"'Innovation,'" Pein continues, "is the new code word for 'looming layoff massacre designed to accelerate the upward transfer of wealth.'" Sometimes it can be really difficult to tell the difference between the disruptors and the disrupted. But I think many entrepreneurial journalists do care about traditional journalistic values like informing the public and exposing injustice. They're just pragmatic about how to get things done in the digital era, and they're interested in the new opportunities it offers. Why wouldn't we try to find a way to produce the best journalism we can under modern circumstances? When your bosses refuse to evolve, what choice is there but going it on your own?

Has anyone used the online request form?
I just noticed the new DVC web site has an online reservation request form. Has anyone used this?
I've used the online reservation form a few times - coming from the UK I feel guilty about using the freephone number given :D
However if you look at the form, you will notice that you only get the option to select 'smoking' (the implication being that non-smoking is what you would get if you didn't select it).
But, when the confirmation comes through it goes something like this:
Special request
Non-smoking null
Crib null
Guest with disability null
So this makes it look like I didn't select 'non-smoking' (when it wasn't an option in the first place). As being in a non-smoking environment is important to me, I ended up ringing to make this request in any case :rolleyes:
If you're a member, please don't be afraid to call the toll-free number. You're entitled to it and, in today's telecommunications world, a call across the Atlantic costs the phone company the same as a call across the street.

I sent in an email request and they directed me to this form without making the reservation. I was livid. There are several problems in that there's really no good place to put in special requests and other info including your points accounting info. It also will not work at all with multiple home resorts or use years. And you can't send yourself a copy of the info you provide so unless you just copy the page, you have no record of what you did. I immediately contacted MS and told them I wouldn't be using it and don't ever reject my email request and direct me to that form again until it would provide the options I listed above. If they make those changes, I'll be happy to use it.
Used it first of July for a reservation for June 2005--said possibly a day before it woudl actually be handled by MS--go the confirmation within 3 hours--and got my confirmation in the mail within 5 business days--for me it was a breeze--didn't mind doing it via email because the request was not too complicated..worked out great--

How do you get going again after pregnancy?
Good news CM. And yay to the good sesh MM.
Hope poorly Tom better soon. Hows Eric today Caro?
Hate living on an island sometimes. Bloody boat is disrupted because of swell in Aberdeen harbour so swimmng trip is cancelled as they won't arrive in time now, and athletics trip looks likely to be off too. Such a shame for all the kids who have trained so hard.
10 miles this morning. Leg feeling ok.
oh that is a bummer, lotte.
got car back. comes to something when you are relieved that it's only 220 quid really! that did include new tyre. but i am glad it wasn't more!! plus car is getting on a bit now; 100k miles and it's a 56 plate so could have been worse
did 2x5 mins with lots of walking (route was 4.5km in total). can feel calf now so lots of stretching and strengthening required. but at least i did it. in the glorious p1ssing rain. haha. typical that after 2 months of calf strain preceded by 2 months of illness, the first time i get out for a trot and it's pishing down!
Much better today thanks, back to old self. Amazing given how hot and miserable he was last night. Delayed vacs though.
It is so COLD!! Apparently this wk end is set to be the coldest March wk end in 50 yrs - just thought that would cheer you up! Matilda has a leaving party for a girl in her class tomorrow - at the Epping Forest Field Centre, for a nice walk in the forest followed by tea. They're going to freeze!
Glad Eric fine. Baltic here too. No snow but snowy showers and strong wind, well into the minus figures with the wind chill. Dylan is on a John Muir outdoor day, they are supposed to be either bog jumping, coasteering or canoeing. Brrr.
Hate 'wasting' money on cars. Glad your bill isn't worse CM.
glad Eric better. they do go up and down very dramatically don't they!?
i guess the only consolation is, lotte, that, even if they got off the island, the rest of the competitors may not make it there... pretty vile weather forecast for lots of places incl southern scotland
yes, it does come to something when you are glad your car service is 'only' £200!! i always used to get it serviced at the dealer but stopped that when i separated from T. use local garage now. dealership for Ford cars in newport was fab - service was great. but price was NOT! local garage is good, too, fortunately. and they are always really helpful.
hope dylan is okay on his outdoor day - that will sort the men from the boys!!
Fab news CM and Lotte. Is that everyone off the bench? Dare I jinx it?
Can't run today Camlo. Hubbie left the house at 6am and won't be back till gone 7pm. Not going out then on a friday night. I need wine tonight and I would like to see hubbie too!! As it is I had to do my dreadmill session at 7.45pm last night once got boys into bed as hubbie was out. So can't face it tonight. Would rather get up early and run tom. If I can't fit in the 2nd one tom not too bothered, only 4 miles easy.
Need a full rest day after a high mileage week and sore legs too. Cold water in the swimming pool has helped though and got away with the walk to church and and back. Not too bad just windy. Lovely easter service and sophie loved all the singing and play acting!!
Boo to all the poorlies. How is Eric Caro?
I have another interview for the job I got a telephone for but can't make the day they have asked for as noone to have the kids at 4pm (rubbish time hey!) as it would take me 45 mins to get there and back again too!!
Also another interview for different job on weds when I do have childcare!! Scarey stuff!
Annoying about the boat Lotte. Guess you just have to set their expectations?
i am hoping that's me off the bench, but am going to take it very VERY slowly. lots more jumping, stretching and calf raises / lunges etc to consolidate the recovery. may try a walk and little jog again tomorrow but am not going to push it. i'm so unfit now anyway that i won't be able to do much!
argh to sick, anj. yes - there is a spectacular amount of vomit that can come out even when they haven't eaten. poor lamb. my two are very sanguine about vomit. i remember i used to get very upset about it as a kid but my 2 don't. having had really bad D+V here for a few weeks, i can now say vomit isn't a problem for me, but diarrhoea - EVERYWHERE - is. once they come out of nappies at night (and especially with J who doesn't wear anything to bed) nocturnal diarrhoea (in beds / down bunk bed ladders, up walls, all over floor, all over shoes) - oh god...
we are in legoland on mon / tues. can't wait. supposed to be chilly but dry. you are nearby aren't you anj?
yay to interviews, MM. can you reschedule the one you can't make? oh and i would rather get up early and run than do a dreadmill run!
WE have the same weather then Lotte I think - absolutely baltic, don't envy the John Muir activity day at all, much as I love the great outdoors. Am mighty glad today is a rest day and did long run yesterday. Great to hear leg seems OK, but boo to the travel plans and the weather.
MM - fab news re the interviews, not so much a 4pm time though - that's just plain silly!! And a great treadmill session too.
Boo to the poorlies thoug, that sounds grim Anj and not what you need to deal with along with a wee baby to feed as well. Hope the rest of you stay clear though. Well done on running, great effort
So do some of you start Easter hols next week then? We don't finish until next Thurs.
CM - fab news re the calf, don't knock a 0.6 jog, just think, a couple of weeks ago you were despairing of running at all!!!
And definitely yay to 'just' a £220 bill for car. My car has 145,000 miles on it and has just had a service and MOT and cost us £1500 , watching hubbys bonus pouring down the drain already!!
I guess I am half on half off the bench. Running despite the niggles. Was pleased with yesterdays 15 after 10.5 the day before. Worked out why my quads felt mashed though when I met the friend who ran first half of the 10-miler with me - ran up the tower in the forest, and back down again - so that's where I'll be doing future hill training!!!
Rest day today. Making madam's birthday cake and stuff. Really hope we get a dump of snow tonight and I have legit excuse to escape orienteering tmrw morning - not a local one - about 60 mile round trip for half an hour of competition - in Aberlour - which is a lovely place in Spring but could do without it tbh. Have S's bday party in afternoon - 8 friends round for a copule of hours of party games etc, and we have another rugby tournament on Sunday. aaaagh!
Hubby drove home last night, was convinced he might not get out of Birmingham on his flight today with the weather warnings, although probably would have been fine, but nice to have him home late last night.
Tired kids today - had family ceileigh with school yesterday. Much fun but late night for school so all grumpy. Roll on the holidays please!!
Hoping so CM. Hubbie can work from home the week after Easter. I have suggested Thursday that week too as all three in childcare 9-3. He can't next week as he has big boss in and is driving all over the place to visit all the sites. He is away Weds night too.
yes, we finished for Easter today, cc. next thursday is late - that's maundy thursday!
Yep finished today CC. Kids need it they are so tired...
Anj - bleurgh to the voms. Even after 3 kids and lots of puke I still find it hard to clear the stuff up without retching myself. Yuck. Hope poorly one is better today.
CM - yay to being off the bench. Nice and easy now remember!
Did a 14 mile run today which was peak mileage for my half training and also the furthest I've ever run in my whole life! Was a bit worried that I might struggle after having sports massage yesterday but legs felt so much better than they have on the last 2 long runs. Will definitely be going for more regular massages in the future! Hope I haven't peaked too early on the speed though, ran it a bit faster than expected at average of 8.35mm which surprised me as it all felt pretty comfortable.
Right, must get the big ones in bed so I can put my feet up with a well deserved glass of red .
Have a good weekend everyone!

Are We Programmed To Fight With Mothers-In-Law?
By The Frisky
I've been married all of 11 days now and, as if on cue, the day my husband (still very much getting used to saying that!) and I tied the knot, he stopped putting the toilet seat down. I ignored it at first, but by our first weekend together as a married couple, I couldn't stand it any longer and said something to him about it. I made a jokey comment about his sudden change in behavior—more embarrassed than pissed at being such a cliché so early in our marriage. After over three years together, surely he must realize if there's one thing I wanted to avoid in marriage it was being a cliché, but I suppose the lesson here is that that's a lost cause for any married couple, even those of us who think we're so "modern." The Frisky: Girl Talk: Is It Bad To Live Together Before Marriage?
One cliché I will be able to avoid, though, is the terrible mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship so many women have. My own mother-in-law passed away long before I got a chance to meet her, and while I'd love to think we would have had a wonderful relationship—if her sons are any indication, she was a terrific woman and I hope she would have approved of me—the odds, apparently, aren't in our favor.
A recent study of "hundreds of families has revealed that nearly two-thirds of women complain they've suffered long-term unhappiness and stress because of friction with their husband's mother." During the research, which was conducted over two decades, "women accused their mothers-in-law of showing unreasonably jealous love towards their sons." For her new book What Do You Want From Me? which publishes this month, Dr. Terri Apter, a psychologist, interviewed more than 200 people, including 49 couples, and "attended family parties and get-togethers so she could observe women with their mothers-in-law and scrutinize the family dynamics for herself." The Frisky: Dating Don'ts: When His Parents Hate You
What she discovered is this: "Both the mother and the wife are struggling to achieve the same position in the family—primary woman. Each tries to establish or protect their status. Each feels threatened by the other." Apter says that many problems between wives and mothers-in-law are based on expectations and assumptions. The daughter-in-laws assume their MILs are judging their homemaking skills, and MILs fear that everything their son's wives do differently than they way they did it, from child-rearing to cooking, is a "rejection of their own choices."

I am a son of Harry Emerson Krone 1885-1978(Mary Emma Stein) who was born and raised in the Maytown area of Penn. He is the son of Bartlet Krone 1863-1936(Sarah Boring)--grandson of Elijah Krone 1834-1918(Annie Powell)--gg son of Philip Krone (Crone)1802- ?(Mary Slagle)-- etc. up through Michael Krone(Crone) 1771-1843 (Sophia Frankengerger)--Simon Kron--1735(Anna Catherine Gohn)- and Johanns Kron 1722(Appelonia ?) In his retirement years my father did a lot of research on Krone genealogy and developed a chart from which I got the above information. I have extended the chart to the current generation and written a journal abouth the Krone history beginning with their emigration from the Palatinate area of Germany in the early 1700s and settling in the York County area. I will be glad to share this information with anyone that wants it. Just E-mail me. Notify Administrator about this message?

Review: 'Detour' Finds Its Way
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on March 27, 2013 | Be the First To CommentThe critical success of 2010's Buried didn't exactly cause a wave of claustrophobic copycats, but a few similarly structured films found their way into production in the past few years. Wrecked saw Adrien Brody trapped in his car after an accident, and Stephen Dorff was stuffed in a trunk (hurray!) for Brake. All three films, for better or worse, had storylines "outside" the single location (car, coffin) that offered additional narrative momentum beyond a simple survival story. Director/co-writer William Dickerson's feature debut, Detour, forgoes that additional layer to focus almost exclusively on one man trapped in a confined space and desperate to escape. Is that enough to keep viewers' attention for ninety minutes? Yes. And no. And yes.
Watch: A Cab Driver's Fate Takes a Sweet, Selfless Trip in 'Detour'
Features By Scott Beggs on April 30, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhy Watch? Call it sugary, call it a little schmaltzy, but there's a lot to love about Takashi Doscher's new short film that focuses on a very lucky cab driver who wins tickets to Game 7 of the World Series and his last client of the day. Slickly shot with as much heart as humor, it overcomes a general Aw Shucks vibe with a loveable comedic lug in star Ted Huckabee and stands as further proof that Doscher is a talent to watch out for. What will it cost? Only 8 minutes. Skip Work. You've Got Time For More Short Films

Gary Gibbons, M.D., Director of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) at the National Institutes of Health
Monday, May 5, 2014, 1 to 2 p.m., OHSU Auditorium
Title: "Charting our Future Together: Setting an Agenda for the NHLBI"
Dr. Gibbons oversees the third largest institute at the NIH, with an annual budget of more than $3 billion and a staff of 917 federal employees. Prior to being named director of the NHLBI, Dr. Gibbons served as a member of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Advisory Council (NHLBAC) from 2009-2012. Before joining the NHLBI, Dr. Gibbons served as the founding director of the Cardiovascular Research Institute, chairperson of the Department of Physiology, and professor of physiology and medicine at the Morehouse School of Medicine, in Atlanta. Under his leadership of the Cardiovascular Research Institute, Dr. Gibbons directed NIH-funded research in the fields of vascular biology, genomic medicine, and the pathogenesis of vascular diseases. During his tenure, the Cardiovascular Research Institute emerged as a center of excellence, leading the way in discoveries related to the cardiovascular health of minority populations. Dr. Gibbons earned his undergraduate degree from Princeton University in Princeton, N.J., and graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Medical School in Boston. He completed his residency and cardiology fellowship at the Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. Throughout his career, Dr. Gibbons has received numerous honors, including election to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies of Sciences; selection as a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Minority Faculty Development Awardee; selection as a Pew Foundation Biomedical Scholar; and recognition as an Established Investigator of the American Heart Association (AHA).
Dr. Gibbons talk is sponsored by the OHSU Office of the Senior Vice President for Research.
Jeff Lichtman, M.D., Ph.D., Jeremy R. Knowles Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology and the Ramon Y. Cajal Professor of Arts and Sciences at Harvard University
Tuesday, May 6, 2014, 4 to 5 p.m., OHSU Auditorium
Title: "Connectomics: What, Why and How?"
Connectional maps of the brain may have value in developing models of both how the brain works and how it fails when subsets of neurons or synapses are missing or misconnected. Dr. Lichtman is eager to obtain such maps in neonatal animals because of a longstanding interest in the ways neuromuscular circuitry is modified during early postnatal life as axonal input to muscle fibers is pruned. Work in Dr. Lichtman's laboratory has focused on obtaining complete wiring diagrams ("connectomes") of the projections of motor neuron axons in young and adult muscles. Each data set is large and typically made up of hundreds of confocal microscopy stacks of images which tile the 3dimensional volume of a muscle. As a first step to analyze these data sets we developed computer assisted segmentation approaches and to make this task easier, have developed second generation "Brainbow" transgenic mice that in essence segment each axon by a unique fluorescent spectral hue. Once the axons are segmented, we have been able to graph the connectivity matrices that result. This effort has led to new insights into the developmental processes which help the mammalian nervous system mold itself based on experience.
Dr. Lichtman did his undergraduate degree at Bowdoin College in Maine and an M.D. and Ph.D. at Washington University in St. Louis. Missouri. His Ph.D. work with Dale Purves concerned the ways in which connections between nerve cells are reorganized as animals begin to experience the world in early postnatal development. This subject has remained the interest of his laboratory (which he moved from St. Louis to Cambridge in 2004). In order to approach questions related to the fine structure of neural connections he has developed methods for in vivo imaging of synapses, labeling of nerve cells with different colors, and high resolution mapping of neural connections, a field he calls "connectomics".
Dr. Lichtman's talk is sponsored by the OHSU Graduate Student Organization.
Jim Austin, Ph.D., editor of Science Careers, a publication of Science magazine and the American Association for the Advancement of Science
Wednesday, May 7, 2014, 12 to 1 p.m., OHSU Auditorium
Title: "I'm not here on business baby, I'm only here for fun"
Jim Austin is currently the Editor of Science Careers, a publication of Science magazine and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). He holds a Ph.D. in physics from the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, which he received in 1992. That was followed by several years of post-doctoral work, culminating in a stint with the title Research Professor. In 1987, he earned a master's degree in the same field.
Dr. Austin's scientific specialty was point defects -- molecular-scale imperfections with real-world consequences -- in materials of technological interest, including materials used in photographic films and electronic devices. He used nuclear-physics methods to study these tiny imperfections. During his scientific career, Dr. Austin authored or co-authored approximately 20 peer-reviewed scientific articles, all in top-tier journals. He also co-edited a book, Accelerator-Based Atomic Physics Techniques and Applications, with Stephen Shafroth.
In the late 1990s, Dr. Austin made a major and abrupt career change, leaving science to pursue a career in writing and editing. He founded The Post-Careerist, an online magazine that endeavored to refocus notions of work and leisure, drawing on the ideas of the Epicurians, Henry David Thoreau, and the Nearings, among others. At the beginning of the new millennium, Dr. Austin also became Science Editor at the pioneering online publication BlueEar.com -- another defunct publication, this one founded by journalist Ethan Casey. At BlueEar, Dr. Austin started one of the very first science blogs, in 2000 or 2001. The stint as BlueEar's science editor was his first step into science journalism. Just a few months later, Dr. Austin joined AAAS as an editor for Science's Next Wave, the online careers publication of Science and AAAS. Several years later, Science's Next Wave was renamed -- it's now Science Careers -- and not long after that Dr. Austin became Science Careers' editor. Since then, he has published dozens of articles on scientific topics, in print and online, most but not all on career issues. He has run Science Careers, and been responsible for its content, since 2005.
This talk is sponsored by the Oregon Clinical and Translational Research Institute (OCTRI).
Chittaranjan Yajnik, M.D.,FRCP, director of the diabetes unit, King Edwards Memorial Hospital & Research Centre in Pune, India
Thursday, May 8, 2014, 12 to 1 p.m., OHSU Auditorium
Title: "Developmental origins of health and disease research in Pune, India"
Dr. Yajnik will lead us in a conversation about the rapidly rising epidemic of diabetes and non-communicable diseases in India, examining conventional explanations and the application of the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) theory, using examples stemming from multi-year intervention studies.
Dr. Yajnik founded KEM Hospital's diabetes unit in 1985. He has worked for the last three decades to investigate the high susceptibility of Indians to diabetes, popularizing the concept of thin-fat Indians and leading research studies related to the developmental origins of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. These include the Pune Children's Study, a fetal origins study examining intrauterine life and its role in determining future health; the Pune Maternal Nutrition Study, investigating the effect of maternal factors before conception on the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease in offspring; and the Pune Intervention Study, a randomized controlled trial of vitamin B12 and micronutrients in adolescents to reduce the risk of non-communicable diseases in offspring.
Dr. Yajnik is a clinician scientist known worldwide for his groundbreaking research. He is featured in a BBC program, The Nine Months That Made You, which has been shown across the globe. Dr. Yajnik is the recipient of the Hellmut Mehnert Award of the International Diabetes Federation (2009) and the David Barker Medal of the DOHaD society (2011), honoring his contributions to the scientific development and broader leadership of the DOHaD field.
This keynote presentation is sponsored by the School of Medicine Research Roadmap and the Knight Cardiovascular Institute Center for Developmental Health's David J.P. Barker Memorial Lecture Series.
